Flamenco Avenue Quartet (FAQ) brings together the sound of Lebrija’s flamenco, the rhythm of the “chacarera” with the Bombo Legüero drum from Tucumán and the most contemporary Jazz made in New York. FAQ is looking for an energetic musical interaction where rhythm and melody take over the virtuosity, while the audience is moving into a musical trip through the most contemporary sound spaces.

The Lebrijan beat which arrives to Jerez, adds the gypsy essence from Ricardo Moreno guitar. The melodic identity from the modal free-Jazz of Javier Moreno, gives Mediterranean shadows to the impressionistic picture. Meanwhile, George Dulin emphasizes the jazz improvisation with the most New Yorker sound, and Franco Pinna combines the folkloric rhythm from Northern Argentina giving solidity to their common heartbeat pulse. - Freddy Castiblanco.
